Gigantic

Motiga have created a fast paced and intense game that MOBA and shooter fans will both be able to sink their teeth into. An Incredible art style mixed with fantastic hero designs makes Gigantic stand out from the crowd and offers limitless possibilities. The few problems the Gigantic has are eclipsed by the sheer fun that that it is to play and I don't see myself dropping this game anytime soon.

As it exists now, Gigantic is a unique take on the genre, with entertaining mechanics and even more entertaining characters. But the more you play Gigantic the more obvious the flaws become. With a little bit of polish before the game’s official release (including meaningful character stats, the ability to preview the character progression tree outside of a match, and quality of life improvements ...

A familiar-yet-engaging take on the MOBA formula.

Gigantic falls into the same category of MOBA as SMITE, of being third-person to pull you straight into the action instead of hovering above it all and clicking up a storm. But does it also have the same addictive gameplay that made me shun all my social obligations?

Jumping into a team-based online match in a fresh new game is an exciting moment. Gigantic may have a unique concept but is there currently enough content to provide enjoyment after a handful of rounds?

For players coming at Gigantic as a completely free-to-play experience, I can see exactly why they’d not play for very long. It doesn’t take too long to make enough in-game currency to unlock a hero, but again, you never know which one is yours until you find it, and that may warrant a lot of play time till those players do. The gameplay itself though is expectantly fast paced, but with an auto-pi...

In a genre as crowded as the MOBA, games live or die in the details. Because of their extended learning curves, these minor difference matter more than in most other kinds of games. Though Gigantic ticks off many of the boxes that players might want from a MOBA, it also removes many of the nuances to make itself more accessible. As a result, it’s a middle-of-the-road experience that doesn’t provid...

Two years after its announcement, Motiga's hero shooter is finally here.
